yeah I think it should be rated 15+. So don't watch if you're not 15 ;P
Then go watch it, it's really interesting, unpredictable, with plot twists and cliffhangers. I don't think I will recommend it for teenagers to watch either, I think it's more for mature audiences ;D
I have a theory regarding the ending of Ep 8 (spoiler, only read if you watched the episode already)
I observed that this drama tends to give plot twists with cliffhangers. Although there is a possibility they're half-siblings but they might be not either. Remember the convo between Grandpa Zhang and Xie Shu Fen in Ep 8? She threatened him to marry his son Zhang Guo Yang to her because they had sex, or she would go to the press telling that the wealthy Zhang family bullied her from being pregnant with a Zhang member. This situation is true if Zhang Yi Xiang is Zhang Guo Yang's child. So basically Xie Shu Fen is a slut and a gold digger sleeping around with men but picked Zhang Guo Yang because he comes from a rich family.
Now... there is a possibility that Zhang Yi Xiang is the result of her having sex with her teacher aka Chen Meng Yun's father. But their affair was also known by others thru rumors (remember the scene in the gallery when women whispered about the affair?). If the affair is not that secretive, the influential Grandpa Zhang should have investigated what kind of woman would marry his son and found out about the affair. Especially since Grandpa Zhang already engaged his son to a rich/powerful family's daughter. He would've also ordered a DNA test for his son and Zhang Yi Xiang to find out if they are related or not. He wouldn't let the boy use Zhang's surname which means in the future will get Zhang's family vast inheritance. Then Xie Shu Fen would not still be married to his son.
There is also another plot twist there might be a third man whom Xie Shu Fen had sex with, Zhang Yi Xiang's real father.
Did Chen Meng Yun know beforehand that Xie Shu Fen was the one who ruined her family and that she takes her revenge…
I was thinking at first Chen Meng Yung didn't seem to plan revenge. She taught at another school and not until she became a whistleblower of the class embezzlement at that school then she moved to the current school. Were she planned since the beginning, she would've worked at the current school since three years ago when Zhang Yi Xiang entered high school.
I have the impression Chen Meng Yung regarded Zhang Yi Xiang like a younger brother until dinner with his mom (end of Ep 6).
I just read it. Kim Young Dae and Park Ju Hyun are nominated for the best couple awards, too. But the competitions are tight, they also nominated the couple from From Now On It's Show Time, Park Hae-jin and Jin Ki-joo, and the couple from recently finished May I Help You: Lee Hye-ri and Lee Jun-young. Both couples are my fave, too. It's a hard pick for me who to root for!
Did Chen Meng Yun know beforehand that Xie Shu Fen was the one who ruined her family and that she takes her revenge…
Ok... so I took it as it's not revealed in Ep 6 that Chen Meng Yun planned it from the beginning. I just felt weird that since the beginning of Ep 1 she seems to know his mom is controlling and even asked him why he hasn't rebelled yet.
I think I agree with you that she didn't have any intention for revenge before because she has avoided his approaches or anything to do with him (for ex. the tutoring). But now after Xie Shu Fen provoked... I wonder if they will do it??? But I think they won't... (ending of Ep 6)
I really commend the micro expression changes of Chen Meng Yun, and how she gradually changes from a teacher feeling concern for students in general to feeling pity for Zhang Yi Xiang to possibly a romantic feeling toward him.
I missed the reference again. I'm not good at that. Can you tell me when ?
Painter Jung created a comic novel specifically for Hae Young because So Rang said Hae Young likes romantic (non R-rated) stuff. He gave the title "Extraordinary You" in English subtitle. This drama has spoofed older dramas like Goblin and Hotel del Luna. Probably subtitling in French is different?

Ep 5 min 20... when Painter Jung and his sidekicks comes to see Hae Young who was with palace guard Ja Chun Seok. I checked it again... it seems another version translated slightly different.
I have a question for anyone who has watched till Ep 6 in the spoiler below...
Did Chen Meng Yun know beforehand that Xie Shu Fen was the one who ruined her family and that she takes her revenge using Zhang Yi Xiang? Or Chen Meng Yun just found out about it after her relationship with Zhang Yi Xiang started and she investigated who Xie Shu Fen is?
I'm so sick of looking at the toxic abusive mom that I almost lost my holiday meal. I skipped the scenes with her in it (starting Ep 5 and 6) to keep my sanity. So I probably lost that important info above.
Oh my gosh, this is such a hard watch! I only keep watching it because of the unpredictable outcome as shown in the prologue of Ep 1. I think afterwards this drama will be the war between these two women. I feel bad for Zhang Yi Xiang being caught in the middle.
